Alpha had already sent five of the Phantosm towards the SMD branch here in Greenville. It was unlikely that the BloodRaven guild would sell their Artefacts to the government since they knew the government was taking a very high percentage from the sales, but it was still a possibility, so they had to investigate.
Alpha's current destination was the largest Artefacts Dealership in Greenville called 'Royal Armory.' It was a large corporation with branches all over the world, owned by an Arabian prince who had somehow managed to bring his business into the country. The Royal Armory wasn't like other Artefact Dealerships that went out looking for customers to patronize them. Instead, the Royal Armory dealt exclusively with guilds! That meant that before you could do business with them, you had to sign a contract that every single Artefact your guild found in a Gate would be sold to them!
